Remember that media is reliable and trustworthy when they report something that you like and agree with.
If ZurdoDev got this through media, I am sure they are of the reiliable class.

That was actually an easing of the rules. Until Monday, there was no 'cross-household' contact allowed.

I think you should wait a couple of weeks (which is how long it takes for an increase to be evident), before declaring an "all clear".
Right now, I'm planning on sitting it out. Just because some people (Cummings, etc.) have been stupid, doesn't mean the rest of us should be. Although the media seems to believe that Dom taking a trip to Durham, is going to convince everyone in the country to start partying!

Obviously. But I wasn't calling "all clear." And we've had large group gatherings going back over a month and still no increase in numbers.

Yes, you are right, it was made legally enforceable on Monday - as opposed to just being 'lockdown rule/guidance'. But the rules/guidance was at the same time eased a little.
So we are now under more relaxed rules/guidance, but they are now Law.

Just to be clear: from Monday you were allowed to go through someone's home to access the back garden, use the toilet, wash your hands, etc. Not to gather.

Not Catch-22. You need to upgrade your disk to 2TB.

Same here, on two different computers. I'm waiting to see whether my brand-new work computer that's supposed to be arriving within the next week or so gets the same message.

Reading about it around, it is not our computer, but problems with the update (10 of them) that made MS to hold back the update for computers didn't do it automatically...
Only instead to state that they gone mysterious...
It remember me the old - communist Hungary era - TV screen, stating that the 'Problem is with your receiver' - even it was able to receive that screen without any problem...

I guess you can't be accused of having bugs with the latest update if nobody's allowed to install it.

I see what you did there!

That's ok - I don't charge for clues, I give them away for free when I set 'em!

Damn, that clue is genius on so many levels. Not only have you got the double anagram, but also you could say "Tedious used to be Outside".

I was cruising anagram-solver.net, feeling a bit bored, and when I saw the two anagrams for tedious I couldn't resist.
I almost left off "So dull", but figured that would be beyond the CCC conventions.
I don't recall seeing very many double anagrams in the wild, but I have encountered a couple.

Peter
